Meet Louie

I've neglected to share an exciting addition to my life. His name is Louie and he's a lovable, long hair chihuahua. I got him over Spring break, so we're honing in on three weeks together. Really I couldn't ask for a better puppy. Potty training is going great, a few accidents here and there but he's picking it up so fast. He's sleeping through the night in his little crate without a peep and he's pretty content chewing on his own toys rather than furniture or pillows. Although, he'll make a snack of your fingers if you let him. I'll just cross my fingers and hope he stays this good!

I love having a little buddy to hang around with. There's a great park right across the street from my apartment that we love to visit. He doesn't even need a leash, he just walks right by my side. I've always wanted a dog that would do that!

Of course like all puppies, he spends a LOT of time sleeping. And I'm okay with that, because who can resist this little, sleepy ball of fluff?

Is he not the cutest?

And how perfect that sponsorsHoney Pot Pet Studioscontacted me about their spring time sale without even knowing about my little pup? Everything in their store is so gosh darn adorable. I adore those chevron bow ties.

Aww. Your puppy is so cute. I have one too...I tell everyone she's my daughter. I'm pretty certain my parents have accepted that at least for now, this is their grandpup...

When our puppy was chewing, not once did she chew anything that wasn't hers. With all the puppy issues we did have, chewing was not one. The vet had suggested that we buy her a new toy pretty regularly when she was chewing, so she wouldn't get board of her toys and chew on the furniture and such. That seemed to work. She has a GAZILLION toys now...

I'm not going to lie... When I opened this, I was sort of hoping it would be a picture of a child, named Louie! I think that name is great and while fitting for a child, it's super cute for your pup too!

Louie is very cute. I was so happy for you when I read this post. I too just got a chihuahua (she is a pound puppy). Your right there's something special about having a little friend with you. I got Darcy around the same time you got Louie. So funny. I would highly suggest Cesar Millan's Leadership videos. We got ours from the library so we didn't have to pay the price tag. They were great. Good luck

Yay -- puppies are so exciting! There's a chihuaha in our neighborhood who has quite the Napoleon complex. When we're out walking our 95 pound Rottweiler puppies (on leashes) sometimes this chihuaha comes charging at us, barking his head off like a tough guy. Then his owner comes scurrying after him to scoop him up and scold him -- "Are you out of your MIND?!" she says. ;-)

Oh my gosh he is so adorable! I have a little schnoodle pup who is now 6 months old almost. She is so clever and has a repertoire of tricks which I plan to get someone to video for YouTube as she can beg, roll over, dance, turn around,or you can hold your fingers like a gun and she will fall on the floor... and now her latest is I can hold her in my arms and say "sleep" and she will flop her head and neck down... she is hilarious and the younger you train them the more perceptive they are. She is my little "Gift from God".

I must admit she does get a lot of attention with me working from home.

So as I began reading the post, I was standing in my cubicle at work. Without thinking, I "awwed" out loud as seeing little Louie's pictures just tickled me pink. Congratulations on your sweet little baby!

As preferred as Cloud Nine could seem, it's not the only decent surfing spot inside the vicinity of Siargao Island. There are various other points which, although lesser-known, are as good as Cloud Nine. All these points are accessible and range from mellow swells for newbie surfers for the forceful and tricky breaking waves that challenge seasoned surfers. To name several, you can find Tuason Point, Jacking Horse, Stimpy's, Supertubes, Cemetery, Guyam Island, Pansukian Reef and Mamon Island. To get a surfing point that's ideal for the specific expertise as a surfer, attempt befriending the friendly locals who may possibly provide you with a heads up.
